Outside of food, naturally...  If I wanted to supplement with pills, where is the best place to buy Lysine?  Ive been getting it a Whole Foods, but it is a bit expensive.  Is it cheaper to buy online while still keeping quality important?  

Also, how much should I aim to take daily?  What would be too much and what are the side effects I should be looking for?

I bought mine from Walmart for about 3-4 dollars.  Spring Valley brand.  I don't like cheap supplements. But my symptoms stop within minutes of me taking these.  

I bought the 1000 mg and I started by taking one a day when I first was diagnosed and having an ob.  When my ob was over I only took it as needed because I was taking other stuff daily.  Example, if I ate chocolate or had too much wine I took one or two.  I read somewhere online that too much lysine can cause hair shedding and I can't lose my hair.  

I also take olive leaf oil daily, along with my multivitamin, and b complex, iron, calcium, magnesium and zinc.  I keep my immune system up.  St John's Wort is also good.  I get the vitamins at health food store, the rest, I get from Walmart.

      Czy to opryszczka?

      By WilsoInAus · Posted

      Hey @Zrozpaczona9 that looks like folliculitis to me, that’s independent of the question of herpes. The doctor is wrong in the sense that a negative IgG test is beyond reasonable doubt that you do not have herpes. It is a small percentage of people for which a false negative occurs. The doctor is right to take a swab to increase your confidence that there’s no herpes present. I’m sure you’ll have your result soon.

      Czy to opryszczka?

      By Zrozpaczona9 · Posted

      Hey @WilsoInAus miałam dzisiaj wizytę u dermatologa, gdyż dostałam zmian w pachwinie, w trakcie wakacji nad morzem. Udałam sie tam ze zmianami w postaci strupów. Powiedział ze nie można wykluczyć opryszczki mimo negatywnego wyniku Hsv igg i zalecił wymaz z pochwy na Hsv i inne choroby. Wytłumaczyłam mu że zmiany zamieniają się w strup, ale nie ma w nich płynu, więc zalecił badanie śluzu pochwy na hsv PCR, zastanawiam się czy ma to sens, i czy wirusa można wykryć na podstawie tego badania w wydzielin z szyjki macicy. Z góry dziekuje za pomoc
